If the 27 isn't getting an upgrade in the near future, I reckon it would be reasonable to fit it with WiFi, seen as it is quite an extensive route!

Probs not get an upgrade just yet perhaps when the citaros get a lot older like when there ready to head off to a spare role I've noticed some scanias now are heading to a red spare role wifi would work especially when I need to send energy to people on Criminal Case if they were to get new buses would Probs be Eclipse 3 but the citaros would do with nice free wifi if the 27 were to get deckers would be the obvious Streetdeck

Will all vehicles with NSAs have the NSAs for the other services with NSAs at that depot, even if the service doesn't have the same type of NSA screen?

I know you will want to take full advantage of the kit given that it costs so much but I was thinking, for the amount of times a C&C or Red Kite Streetlite will end up on the Venture group of services (minus the few V7s allocated them), is it really worth it? The Ventures having the C&C and Red Kite announcements may be handy though, given how many times they have strayed onto other services with there being 2 spares.

The ultimate aim is to have two Next Announcement programmes across Go North East: a programme for the TFT screens, and a programme for the LED monitors. Each programme will contain all of the media for every service with Next Stop Announcements, as and when the Next Stop Announcements on these services are re-launched into the new 'line-plan' format.

A lot of work is required to get this done, though.

One of the X9/X10s was running all day yesterday with no service number on the front, just the destination!
